Active clinical trials for "Foot Ulcer"

This study was conducted to determine the effect of Buerger Allen exercises on lower extremity perfusion and wound healing in patients with foot ulcer type 2 diabetes. The Buerger Allen exercise is a specific exercise that aims to improve circulation in the feet and legs. Buerger Allen exercise is an ideal and noninvasive therapy for diabetic patients with a diabetic foot ulcer as it is an easy-to-learn, repetitive, low-cost, and low-risk physical activity. Subjects were randomly allocated to either the control or intervention group. The ulcers and lower extremity perfusion of the patients in both the intervention and control groups were examined and measured.

The impacts from diabetes are both patient related and healthcare based. Offloading is recognised as the priority treatment for healing neuropathic and neuro-ischaemic plantar foot ulcers. The new PulseFlow DF boot is a device which claims to off load but has little or no evidence on diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) subjects. Thus the primary aim of this study is to observe forefoot plantar pressures in a cross sectional purposively selected sample compared to usual standard of care.

The primary objective is to explore the mechanistic role of ON101 cream in healing diabetic foot ulcers by determining the molecular targets of ON101 cream. Primary endpoint: Percentage change from baseline in the expression level of individual target gene(s) at protein and/or mRNA level. Secondary endpoints: Comparison of the gene and/or protein expression level of individual target between ON101 and Placebo groups Change from baseline in the wound microbiota composition in each group Comparison of the wound microbiota composition between ON101 and Placebo groups Comparison of the wound reduction rate in each group Correlation of wound reduction rate with the alternated level of each target gene in each group. Safety endpoints: Incidence of treatment-emergent adverse event (AE) Change from baseline in vital signs, physical examination, and laboratory tests

Study will evaluate the use of lower-limb assistive exo-skeletons worn on the ankle and foot. Participants will wear the exo-skeletons and walk in a safe environment. Measurements will be taken to determine how the exo-skeletons affect the pressure on the feet of people with diabetic foot ulcer and how they walk.

A clinical study at the Baylor College of Medicine, Division of Vascular Surgery and Endovascular Therapy, is being proposed to test the efficacy of a novel electrical stimulation platform named the Tennant Biomodulator designed by AVAZZIA to accelerate wound healing, relieve pain and improve mobility in patients with diabetic foot ulcers.

Comparison and evaluation of pressure distribution, gait pattern, changes in the movement of the center of pressure, shock absorbing capabilities and comfort of wear using KyBoot shoes versus normal foot wear in diabetic and healthy subjects.

Physical training is one of the cornerstones within the treatment of diabetes, as well as medicine and diet modification, and the effect is well documented. Nevertheless people with diabetes with foot ulcers are urged to lessen their level of physical activity, to reduce pressure on footbed and thereby achieve fastest possible healing. Purpose: The primarily purpose is to investigate the feasibility of implementing safe, progressive resistance training, combined with exercises for ankle mobility and aerobic training, for people with diabetes and foot ulcers, without compromising the ulcer. The secondarily purpose is to investigate whether this form of training is effective on improving muscle strength, as to if limitations in everyday life diminishes. The hypothesis is, that it is possible to implement a structured exercise program without compromising the diabetic ulcer.

The purpose of this pilot study is to evaluate the effect of auricular autonomous nervous system stimulation on vital parameters of wound healing in diabetics. It is investigated if auricular vagal nerve stimulation has an effect on heart rate variability as well as peripheral local blood perfusion, and if this effect depends on the health status of the study participants (diseased/healthy).

ABSOLVE Biologic Wound Matrix is a combination of recombinant human platelet-derived growth factor BB homodimer (rhPDGF-BB) and a bovine type I collagen wound dressing matrix. ABSOLVE is under development for the treatment of chronic and acute wounds. This study investigates the safety and efficacy of ABSOLVE in chronic diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs).

To investigate the treatment effect between Traditional treatment and transplantation of autologous PRG combined with autologous BMMSCs for treatment of diabetic foot ulcer.
